It's fatal leaving one vehicle out of commission, you can guarantee that the second one will start playing up within a couple of days :!: Well that's what always happens to me :roll: :lol:

Have you tried Ebay for the turbo :?:

Hi James, I did phone yesterday but the nice lady said you had no turbos or cartridges for my Mk6 125 tdci :cry: in-stock, so if you know if your getting a delivery by Friday I can hold off looking elsewhere.

Many thanks Ned.
